Morning George, I wasn't being critical - honest.
Cheers, Norman. ------------------------------------- Norman Dunbar Database/Unix administrator Lynx Financial Systems Ltd. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: 0113 289 6265 Fax: 0113 289 3146 URL: http://www.Lynx-FS.com ------------------------------------- -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, January 26, 2003 4:11 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [ql-users] Assembly question I never intended in either GWASL or GWASS to go to the trouble of evaluating expressions except in a "simple" way. That is in both assemblers evaluation is done from left to right ignoring implied brackets (parentheses) so 3+4*8 becomes 3+4 -> 7 7*8 -> 56 Other assemblers no doubt will produce the answer 3 + (4*8) = 3 + 32 = 35 I had to go through several instructions in Turbo'c codegen altering the order of the expressions so that GWASS wouild get the right answer. I apologise if people find it troublesome. (Again it is probably another case of RTFM if things appear to go wrong.)
